Aerial mastery in an ag plane - Aug 2017 - agplane, cropduster

[@airailimages]

Stay with us for more spectacular agplane action from Montana in this Airailimages video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHechYuQpq5gZsk

[@MrTurboparker]

These guys are the best precision commercial pilots in the world! Flying low & slow with a load on is WAY harder than flying high & fast!

[@airailimages]

It is always great to watch ag pilots in action; graceful skills.

Memories of the 80's for me. We had three of these planes. I was either loading them, or flagging the fields. We used to pray they'd hit some rain on the way back in, so we wouldn't have to scrub the bugs off of the wings

[@airailimages]

Thanks for watching, and adding your story about working with the ag planes.

[@rc_farmer4866]

How can anyone not like this......i can't wait for spring so i can go plan spotting.

[@GlideYNRG]

Loved watching an old boy in a Grumman AgCat years ago in the Kimberly. I don't think anything would've stayed with him down low level.

[@brentdykgraaf184]

Is this Trent Palmers brother?...wow.great video.

[@DumbledoreMcCracken]

I love the smell of paraquat in the morning.

[@rc_farmer4866]

Dusty Crophopper!

[@Harrison2253]

how do they keep track of whats been sprayed and not sprayed ?

[@airailimages]

Pretty sure it is by GPS today; back in the day, a flagger would stand at the end of the row, and move over after each pass. Then, around the 1970s, a company called Automatic Flagman made a dispenser that would release a biodegradable paper streamer at the end of each pass, fluttering to the ground to act as a marker. And way back, on low crops like peas, some duster pilots would actually touch the ground with their wheels to mark where they had been (!)

[@johnpoindexter6594]

Robert M The AG GPS Downloads a tracking report and map that can be printed out and given to the client at the end of each day

[@tjss311]

There’s a couple different ways but gps mainly, watch the light bar in front of the cockpit it tells you if your lined up

[@ChiefAUS]

Love your videos. Can you tell me the reason his landing lights are blinking, left, right, left, right? Thanks for your great videos.

[@GlideYNRG]

ChiefAUS I'm thinking for higher visibility during operations.

[@bottomshot4546]

aka the wig wag :)

[@ChiefAUS]

Ryan O'Connell, are you talking about higher visibility for the pilot? It is bright sunlight. lol

[@GlideYNRG]

Be surprised how easy that bright yellow bird disappears. I'd imagine it's a lot busier there in the states too as to what we're used to here in Australia.

[@thecheeta]

Visibility for OTHER pilots. So other pilots can see HIS aircraft more easily.

[@ghostdu8315]

It's Dusty !

[@Dakotapowalisz2008]

What plane is this

[@brendonmatte7495]

So sorry to learn that.

Very sorry to hear that. Thank you for sharing the information.

[@cleroyster2610]

Mastery in flight....but I hope he's not spraying Round Up on the field.......Monsanto...Agent Orange...DDT....lies......

[@gary24752]

Educate your self.

[@cleroyster2610]

I'd like to do just that. My shallow research takes me down the rabbit hole. Any good directions , you could point me..?
